A cross-sectional descriptive study to determine the frequency of ocular manifestations associated with systemic autoimmune diseases in a third-level hospital in Mexico. Records from 2014 to 2017 at the Inflammatory Eye Disease Clinic of the Asociación Para Evitar la Cegueraen México were examined by both an ophthalmologist and a rheumatologist on the same day. Diagnosis was achieved from initial ocular manifestations with later systemic assessment. Out of 311 medical records, 276 were included, 75% of the patients were female. Keratoconjunctivitis sicca was the most frequent ocular manifestation (33.3%), followed by anterior uveitis (29.5%), scleritis (23.2%), and peripheral ulcerative keratitis (7.2%). The leading autoimmune diseases were spondyloarthritis (29%), rheumatoid arthritis (28.6%), primary Sjögren's syndrome (10.5%) and granulomatosis with polyangiitis (9.1%). 41.3% of systemic disease diagnoses were made after an initial ocular manifestation. Inflammatory eye manifestations can imply systemic autoimmune diseases. It is crucial to suspect and confirm this association and provide timely interdisciplinary management. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
